We are using dwc2 downstream[1] on 4.4 to get gadget support on
Pi Zero. I didn't add any extra patches to get that working.
The only difference I can think of is that we boot directly from the
firmware bootloader and turn on USB power in the firmware driver.

I have seen strange dwc2 probing errors when USB power is off.
